Thanks is there a salay cap? limted/unlimited trades if a player gets injured or loses form? re defence, did you say pick whole teams defence?
No salary cap. There are some leagues you can go in like that, but I have never done one, not as fun. Sometimes there is a limit to trades and add/drop but I don't know if German has set one. In the leagues I run, there's no limit. There is, however, a trade deadline so guys can't make deals and trade away all their good players to one team before the playoffs. If there is a limit on adding and dropping players and you reach the limit (it's usually high so you probably won't), the commissioner can always manually make the change for you if it is an injury thing and has to be done. For Defence, yeah you pick one team's D. It will function like an individual player. So, on your roster under Defence is will just say Minnesota or whoever you pick. If any defensive player (for the team whose D you have) gets a sack or INT or TD, then the accompanying points are awarded to the Defence on your roster, and thus, to your fantasy team.
So how do I join and what is the cut off date and other than choosing a defensive team , what do I need to do?
This is harder than pulling teeth for you but I am really a novice ..so what does rank a player mean?
There?s a butten called "Draft Central" where you can edit your player rankings. The players are preranked by Yahoo, thou. btw, first off you need to create a yahoo account, if you don?t have one already. If you want in, then I?m gonna sent you the League-ID and Password, and you can Join. @all, sorry guys, seems like if fucked up, and didn?t send the 2nd PM out. Just did it, everyone should have theirs now, if not tell me. @IATA, your inbox is full!
There is a draft man, it all goes down in ne day. If we do an automatic draft, you will rank the players/defenses that you want the computer to follow as it picks, and the day after the draft you will see the results. If we do a live draft, you can do the picks yourself right then and there. If you do no ranking at all, the Yahoo! rankings, which are pretty decent, will be used to pick your team.
I?m not a big Fan of that. QBs get too strong when they?re awarded 6pt per TD, even average QBs can easily get 20 TDs, while only great RBs can reach that mark, so I think their TDs shouldn?t count equally. But if most here prefere 6pt passing-TD, I?ll change it, but we should go up the -3 or -4 pt/ Pick then.
I just like it because I try to manke fantasy fotoball scorign as real a protrayal of actual football scoring as possible. If a player on an NFL team contributes 20+ touchdowns per season to his team and that translates to 120 points, then I don't see why the same shouldn't be the case for fantasy.
Let's just go with as conventional settings as possible, this is a league that's going to be filled up with less experienced players.
